The Back 40

We had some gift certificates left over from Christmas '05 (thank you Grandma & Grandpa Baker!!!!!) and decided to use them last night. We went to The Back 40 in Decatur, IN and it was SOOOOOO yummy!!! It was MJ's first time eating there. In case anyone hasn't ever been there, it's a HUGE buffet with awesome prime rib. They have a cheese bar, salad bar, homemade bread bar, soup bar, dessert bar, and then the REAL food bar. It's kind of like a Cracker Barrel, buffet style. We LOVE it!!! We had a great time, we'll definitely be doing that again!!!

Oh, and Mackinley got an awesome compliment from our waitress. She commented on how good and well behaved and quiet he was...I thought that was quite the compliment coming from someone who sees hundreds of children every day!!! We were beaming with pride for our little man.

In this picture he was eating cottage cheese & crab salad. The whole meal he ate cottage cheese, crab salad, melon, pineapple, vegetable soup, mashed potatoes and gravy, scalloped potatoes, roast beef, pea salad, macaroni and cheese, and some chocolate pie for dessert!!

Oh my God! I can't believe he ate that much. That's just a couple of bites of all those things, right?

I don't remember Keri eating that much; its shocking that such a little guy can put down that much food. I guess his metabolism is working overtime.
